Short.io creates short links what helps to read and remember them easily. After clicking a short link, the system redirects users to the original URL, which they can see in the browser address bar.

When you enable the Link cloaking feature, visitors see a short URL instead of a long one in the browser address bar.

Note: Link cloaking is available starting from the Personal plan.

1. Log in to Short.io.

2. Shorten a link. Click on 'Link cloaking' icon.

or click a pencil icon of the already created URL.

3. Click on the "Link cloaking" tab.

4. Enable link cloaking by clicking a toggle switch.

5. Save.
